I'm out after the third episode
Why all the phasers hidden around his home?
Why the "Sheer f'ing hubris" line?
Woke show shoots itself in the foot by making women in charge of Starfleet
Great side-by-side comparison of both "Time Machine" films.

That's something I always wondered about, too. I never heard anyone else mention that missing dialog. I can only guess that since these Italian films were shot as silent movies that maybe Carlo De Mejo did some ad lib and when it came time to record the dialog in the studio that part wasn't in the script.
No, he didn't turn it down. He wasn't available because of "Jaws 2." It's like how Tom Selleck couldn't do "Indiana Jones" because he was under contractual obligation to film "Magnum PI."
It's a shame he backpedaled so fast. He's got more than enough money and he's old, so why does he care if the internet mob cancels him. I think his kids must influence him. I know his one kid Joe is uber-woke. Back in the day Stephen King never seemed like this.
My favorites in order are:
The Light at the Edge of the World (1971)
There Was a Crooked Man (1970)
Ulysses (1954)
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954)
The Fury (1978)
The Chosen (1977) - aka: Holocaust 2000 - An Italian "Omen" knockoff.
The Vikings (1958)
The second episode, in my opinion, is even more boring and talkative than the first was. The third one releases any day now, but from the previews they're still stuck on Earth for the duration of that one, too. It's one very slow burn of a show.
Yes, but those were her own words that she's a good Catholic with no hate in her heart for anyone.
I guess all that talk good Catholic Nancy said about not having hate in heart for anyone and being prayerful for the president were lies.
I'm no Depp fan, but he didn't throw anything at anyone. It looked like he just beat the hell out of his glass door cupboards.
The idea that Nazis were all about blonde hair and blue eyes is a cartoon caricature myth about them. Only a small percentage of Germans are even that. There was no plan to breed everyone to have those attributes.
Having these people shout obscenities in Star Trek is simply lazy and cheap writing because they're not capable of writing dialog well enough. It's already been established in "Voyage Home" that using that vernacular went out of style long ago.
